My son is now almost 8 months old. Ever since he was born, well even before he was born, I've been having all these thoughts about something bad happening to me. I guess on the weekends I watch too many Lifetime movies! Is this just a new mommy syndrome? Does anyone else think about stuff like this? Thanks!

No. You are not alone. I think that is a fear of all mothers.

You are certainly not alone! I went through it, I'm still going through it even almost 2 years after her birth. It is very, very common. Just another part of motherhood....

Definetly not alone - I used to have terrible thoughts like that - or even worse something happening to my son. I would give myself nightmares and wake up hysterically crying. It still happens to me - and my son is 6 now. Its a normal part of motherhood!

Thank you everyone! I feel better at least knowing I'm not nuts! I also worry about something happening to my son. But at least it's normal thoughts. Thanks!
